I didn't even know about it until the day before. And I like both guys. They did a garbage job promoting it.

Showtime is doing fine. Nielsen ratings don't mean much. The Staples Center was packed and as for Showtime, their streaming service subscriptions have been on the rise. They had a few million people subscribe in the past year from what I read. I've been watching Showtime fights via the streaming app for about 2 years now. Look at some of HBO fights, their numbers are always high because they offer no live streaming unless u stream through your cable provider app. Their fights might get a lot of views but you look at some of the attendance for those fights. They aren't bringing in that much in revenue.

Yeah but to me if showtime had these same kind of numbers before ppl started talking about streaming etc then its hard to believe that all of a sudden a million ppl started subscribing only to there streams lol. Idont buy that argument at all. Which in the big picture it foesnt faze me, i have the app now myself and it wouldnt bother me if i was the only guy watching haha

PBC fanboys were saying Lomachenko's 1.7 million viewers were a huge flop and now make lame excuses why PBC's ratings are so weak.
